*Taneekas pov* "You lied to me" I stare at Logan "Because we need to talk" he growls "I can't be here" Jack whispers I grab his hand tightly and Daniels eyes lock on our hands. I take a shaky breath and pull Jack to the couch and pull him closer to me. I could tell he wanted to leave but obviously this was important. "We are going on tour in like 2 days and you guys don't talk. That's not acceptable and Fans will think the band is going to split up and I bet none of you want that" Lohan looks at all of us The boys shake their heads and Jack shifts uncomfortably. "So snap out of it and make up. I'm not making you guys hang out but you need to make appearances together. As a band. As couples. As friends." Logan glares at us all We all nod and look at the ground. "Let's have dinner" Corbyn holds Christina in his arms as she death stares Elisabeth. "Fine" Daniel grabs Elisabeth's hand and walks out the door Emma, Lexi and Christina look at me waiting for a reaction. I look at my hand in Jack's and he looks at the ground. I grab his chin and lift his head. "We are stronger than them" I make him look at me His eyes were filled with tears and he fought to hold them back. He closes his eyes and shakes his head a tear escaping and rolling down his cheeks. "I can't see them together Taneeka....it's like seeing your sister and best friend together" Jack looks at me "Jack.....I can't see them together either but we have to do this. For the band. For the fans. For us" I grab both his hands He puts his head on my chest and starts sobbing. I wrap my arms around him and everyone stands around watching us. Logan stares at us and then sighs. "Jack you need to listen to Taneeka. You are both strong but together you are stronger." Logan puts a hand on Jack's shoulder Jack nods but stays on my chest. "I love you Jack" I murmur in his ear "I love you too" he whispers He pulls away and wraps his arms around me and I feel safe for once in what feels like forever. I put my head on his chest and then Elisabeth bursts through the door. "I don't know what you are trying to do but I would pull your head out of your ass" she glares at me "That's it" Lexi lunges at her and Christina screams "LEXI STOP" Jonah grabs Lexi and pull her away He pushes her behind him protectively as Daniel comes storming into the room. "What's going on here!?" He yells picking Elisabeth up "Get out" I step towards him "What?" He looks at me in shock. "Get out" I feel Jack's hand grab mine "Why?" He looks at Elisabeth in his arms and back at me "She is a disrespectful slag get her out of this house" I let Jack pull me back so one of his arms was around my waist reach to pull me back if Elisabeth was to lunge at me. "What did you say?" Daniel looks at Elisabeth "Let's go before I get stabbed" Elisabeth grabs his hand and pulls him out the door Everyone stares at me and then Jack pulls me closer. "Don't cry" he whispers I hide my face in the crook of his neck and fight the tears. "Dinner in 1 hour" Corbyn sighs and they all disappear Jack and I go back to our house and I take a shaky breath as I look at myself in the mirror.

I let out the breath and shake my hands. I turn and see Jack in his casual clothes but he looked formal. "You look beautiful" he smiles "You don't look too bad yourself Jack" I smile at him He holds out his hand and I latch onto it. He smirks and we get a Uber to the restaurant. We see everyone but Daniel and Elizabeth. I roll my eyes and sit between Jack and Christina. Emma and Zach where across from us and Corbyn was beside Christina holding her hand as he talked with Zach. I look at Jonah and Lexi and she sends me a grin. "You look beautiful Taneeka" she smiles "Not as beautiful as you Lex" I laugh Jack squeezes my hand lightly and I look up to see Elisabeth and Daniel. Jack tenses as Daniel sits beside him and Christina notices. "Do you want Corb and I to switch with you guys?" She whispers to both of us Jack shakes his head and I squeeze his hand. "You sure" I mouth He nods and puts on a brave face. I look at our hands and then Jack's thumb draws circles on my hand. For some reason it calmed me down and he seemed less tense as well. Our palms were sweaty but nothing seemed to matter but getting through the night. "Can we order already" Elisabeth groans The waiter sends her a glare and asks our end for the food. "We are more important" Elisabeth glares at me Christina smashes her table against eh table and turns towards Elisabeth. "Shut up and wait or I'm gonna be the one you will have a fucking problem with got it?" Christina spits Elisabeth looks at Daniel and he mouths something to her. Jack squeezes my hand and I look at him. "It's like we are the peasants" he whispers "You are no peasants Jack Avery" I kiss his cheek and warm a croon from half the table. "Omg my heart" Lexi puts a hand on her chest "Smooth" Jonah nods at me I blush and Jack laughs lightly. Elisabeth and Daniels heads snap in our direction. We earn a glare from both of them and I roll my eyes. "You really are beautiful Taneeka" Jack looks into my eyes My heart skips a beat and it was like no one else was in the room. His eyes were breathtaking and I felt my gut grow butterflies that decided to tap dance. I blush and look away. Emma and Lexi stare at me with jaws dropped. Jonah and Zach send each other glances and smirks. "What would you like to order?"the waiter snaps me out of my imagination and I look up. "Uh just a salad and water thanks" I smile "You need it" Elisabeth smirks "I'm sorry but if you can't stay quiet I will need to ask you and your date to leave" the waiter snaps "Make me" Elisabeth growls The waiter looks at me as if asking for permission. "It's okay once you learn to tune out annoying sounds all you hear are normal people talking" I smile "Damn" Christina giggles "Ughhhhh" Elisabeth slams her hands on the table and stands up "Elisabeth sit down" Daniel spits "No I'm going home" she grabs her purse "Elisabeth sit down" Daniel grabs her hand She looks at him and then sits down sighing. Jack sends me a grin and orders his food. He gets a lot and I frown "I'm not letting you starve yourself because you think your fat ba....Taneeka" he blushes correcting himself quickly "Jack" I feel my heart freeze His hand grazes my cheek to lift my chin. He flicks my nose lightly and I giggle. "Jack" I slap his hand away "We all feel like a third wheel right now" Zach laughs Jack laughs and his hand rests on my waist. I bite my lip and look at my phone. Daniel. What is going on between you two? I roll my eyes and nudge Jack. He looks at my phone and smirks. "A lot" he whispers in my ear sending shivers down my spine I laugh and feel my cheeks burn. Jack laughs and kisses my cheek gently. "You are cute when you blush" he smiles "You are cute when you smile...and that's very rare" I squeeze his cheek "I only smile for certain things" he laughs "Here is your salad" the waiter places it in front of me When he walks away Jack pushes it to the centre of the table and I rest my head on his shoulder. "You need to eat proper food you are skinnier than a twig" Christina squeezes my hip "I don't know whether to take that as a compliment or a joke" I laugh "Oh shush" Jack smushes my face "Jack" I slap his hand away and blush Finally everyone's food arrives and Jack pushes a burger in front of me "Jesus" I laugh He has a steak in front of him with chips "Enjoy princess" he kisses my cheek and digs into his food Everyone was eating and for once it felt like we were a family again. Elisabeth was busy eating to talk shot and Daniel was paranoid about Jack and I. Christina nudges me and points to my food. I smile and take a bite out of it. "Fatty" Elisabeth smirks I instantly put the burger down and my eyes fill with tears. "You are beautiful Taneeka you are legit in the best shape I have ever seen a girl in" Jack puts a hand on my cheek "No I'm fat and ugly" I stand up and run towards the bathroom. "Taneeka"Jack calls out "God damn it Elisabeth" Christina growls I run into the bathroom and evolve into tears. My make up streams down my cheeks but I didn't care. I was always worried that I wasn't pretty enough and that I was fat. I knew Elisabeth was being a bitch but it hit a nerve. Jack bursts into the bathroom and wraps his arms around me. "Get out you aren't meant to be in here" I push him away "The waiter let me in" he murmurs into my hair. "Jack please" I look t the mirror and I looked horrible. "Taneeka please come out Daniel got pissed at Elisabeth and told her she was being rude and Christina nearly stabbed her. Everyone is pissed at her" Jack pulls me towards the door "I look horrible" I whisper "No you look beautiful" Jack kisses my forehead. My heart flutters and the butterflies come back this time with hammers. We walk out and he brushes the mascara from under my eyes away. "Like I said...beautiful" he smiles "I'm sorry" Elisabeth whispers "What?" Everyone looks at her "I understand.....you are like me when I was young...I thought I was fat all the time. I'm sorry I said it" she looks at her plate "Thanks" I look at my hand in Jack's and he squeezes it lightly "You are the most beautiful and amazing girls I have every met" Jack lifts my chin "I love you Jack Avery" I whisper "I love you too princess" he kisses my forehead and Christina giggles "Cute" She whispers "I'm full Lex you wanna head home?" Jonah looks at Lexi "Of course" she smiles at him They leave and Emma and Zach leave not long after. Elisabeth and Daniel disappear and Corbyn sighs. "It's only like 8" he smushes Christina's face together "Let's go walk around" I shrug "Sure" Jack smiles and we pay and head out We walk in the night air and I curse to myself for not bringing a jacket. Christina was wearing Corbyns jumper and he was wearing a merch jumper. Jack had no jumper as well and I see him shiver. I just look at my feet as we walk. We get to the Hermosa beach and I look at all the stars. Jack moves to my side and I look at him smiling. We all walk down the pier and Christina and Corbyn ask us to take pictures for them. We do and then they start taking photos of us. "Stop!" I laugh Jack laughs and wraps his arms around me as the wind picks up. I shiver and turn my body around and wrap my arms around him. Christina takes a photo of us and I laugh. We all sit down and throw rocks into the water. "I have a crazy idea" I look at them all "I already know it" Christina climbs to her feet "Jumping into the water?" Corbyn looks at us "Yes" Christina and I squeal and grabs each other "I'm down I have seen heaps of people do it" jack climbs to his feet. "Let's do it" I smile
